Memphis Gaydar

Some numbers to think about...

My follow-up story on evidence of LGBT discrimination in Tennessee (using stats provided by University of Memphis professor Sharon Horne) will appear in the Memphis Flyer that hits stands tomorrow, but Horne provided me some additional numbers that didn't make it into the story.

According to Horne's study on "Gay Men in Dual-Career Couples":

25 percent of gay Tennessee residents reported being told offensive jokes about lesbians, gay men, or bisexual people by their co-workers or supervisors.
